[TowerTalk] US Tower broken cable, et al.

[Joe Vilardo]

Dave

You may want to call First Call communications in Springville, NY for
assistance.  About a year ago there was e-mail on this reflector from First
Call offering replacement cables  and restringing instructions for the US
tower products.  I believe First Call is a dealer for US Towers.   I am
suprised that Bruce did'nt mention First Call to you as they are very close
to Buffalo as opposed to a company in NJ...hmmmmmm.

73's
